an extensive scale. During the more ac-
tive period of his life he was as well
known to the people of this county as
any man in this city. A narration of the
chief events of his life would make an
interesting chapter of history. He leaves

been absent from home.

BRISTOL.

Bristol enjoyed two caucuses at
least 1 did. The circumstances at
tending them proved that they were
not muchly packed, for at both there
was Il number of names for each ONCE
and no one had a great majority of
votes. Nor was there much unjust
voting, as the votes cast never exceeded
the number of persons present, and /
counted them. / had no candidate, so
did not vote at either caucus until my
kpet theory came up. Then I went in
strong for Treasurer and Justices, and
am pleased to know that we shall keep
the present ones in for at least another
term. Three good old citizens were
nominated for constables - Messrs.
Lacy, J. C. Roberts and s. r. Leonard
but the voters thought the old men
ought to be excused, and they put in
an active young one.
